They are amazing when in the air – I seen one last year over Warkworth in Northumberland. It had been at or due at the Sunderland Air show and it was so graceful in the air – like an Albatros or something. Slow yet nimble and bloody loud.

I only managed a crapy phone pic, gutted.

I would speak to them as BT lowest tarrif is 10GB per month. Not sure if they charge per byte after that limit or just cut you off.

If thats the case ask to upgrade for a few quid extra a month.

I bet the cost is down to phone calls to mobiles though – any family been abroad over summer etc?

Taken from BT – here

If you exceed your monthly usage allowance your service won't stop working; advisory emails will be sent to your BT primary email address if you reach 80 per cent of your usage allowance each month and further notification if you then exceed your allowance in a particular month.

If you exceed your usage allowance for two months in a row, we'll charge you £1 for each extra GB you use (rounded up to the nearest GB) starting from the second month you exceed your allowance. We'll continue charging if you keep exceeding your allowance in the following months. These charges will appear on your BT bill.

From 1st November 2010, if you exceed your usage allowance, you'll be charged for additional usage in units of up to 5 gigabytes (GB), at a charge of £5 per 5GB. Charges will apply from the second month you exceed your allowance and in any subsequent month that the usage allowance is exceeded. These charges will appear on your BT bill.

Charlie Spurr – snapped/broke his ankle at bottom of Blockhouse.

Its getting really slippy up there – I was hospitalised with suspected broken neck last thursday and another guy i was with yesterday broke a finger.

Actually steve can you email me matts email address – email in profile.

drac – were you caled to the place that cant be mentioned yesterday?

Air ambulance, normal one and a Paramedic were there for one of the trail builders who broke his leg.

is manchester northern enough?

urgh thats not even the North – thats the Midlands.

Its bloody rediculous up there nowadays….some of my "friends" from Warkworth have accents that would put an Etonian to shame with. FFS your bloody Northumbrians – I cana bide it.

There are a few wannabee posh Geordies (the worst type) in Beadnell – aka North Jesmond.

We had that and it was only against me not Mrs. He stopped when I squirted him with a water sprayer. Also letting him out has kerbed his naughtiness. If it's heavy rain he can be a nightmare in the house.

Ive got a TSG superlight – handled a big crash I had 2 weeks ago just fine.

Its ace even in summer its not too warm – much prefer the full head coverage compared to an XC lid.

Take a look, sit back and enjoy[/url]

I reckon his Dad is harder than yours.

oxfordan – if that ccdb ever needs a new home let me know

If anyone here decides to change there forks im looking for 36 floats/vans etc with 200mm steerer. Email in profile – thread hijack i know 🙂

Whats the museum like as a whole? Worth going?

Do they have a Vulcan?

Get yourself up to Northumberland – 26 mins from Alnmouth to Newcastle on the train… beaches are empty – no dual carriageways, traffic lights etc. At the loacal trails in 15mins.

I used to fun them quite decent but looking on classifieds last night there were lots of posts with no replies. Getting harder to sell stuff and my wanted ads aren't getting many replies.

Excellent Geetee – now that just leaves me with the task of finding a 2nd hand set somewhere.

36 Floats wanted – email in profile.

So you can ruN 36 floats at 150? That sounds ideal.

I am using it for a bit freeride type riding to be honest – although im not very good.

not sure whether to get a 60a for the back with the Min DHf ST up front or..

get a Swampy ST and run it on front and the Minion ST on the rear.

Decisions decisions.

I like mine for rear head protection – absorbed a pretty major smash last week that put me in hospital for suspected broken neck.

I use a TSG Evo superlight and its great only 49 quid too. Style suits my fat round head better than an xc lid. Use it for natural aggressive trails and trail centres before reaching for the full face for DH.

Brycey – do you fancy doing a text update as they go please 🙂

Go on Gee lad.

The stewards moved them from the track onto stretchers with out checking for spinal injuries but then dropped Tomizawa when he was on the stretcher. It sounded like he had pretty horrendous injuries.

Excuse my ignorance but what is the difference between World Cup and World Champs – Is the Champs not the accumulation of all the Comps throughout the season – as per F1 etc?

Is it available to watch online? See freecaster want 15.00 quid or something like that.

Olympic classes are always expensive to compete in. For the performance they cost loads. Check out the rs100 and the devoti one for a new take on the design.

How heavy are you – think the starting weight for finns is something like 15st.

Consider alternatives such as Laser, contender, rs300, musto skiff (my choice), rs700, devoti one

They have a complex mast bend, sail shape thing going on that may create problems when buying second hand equipment.

confirmation – yes i was wearing a helmet.

i had it on my 18yr old back boiler – every service they just looked at it and said you should really replace it. However when checking their parts database they said they could still get everything they would need.

Got about 4 yrs from it before it died and they condemned it.

All in all it was a decent service.

My relative may get a run out for NUFC… Ryan Donaldson – excellent junior record. Looking forward to see Vuckic get a game.

Hopefully he will give Xisco a 90mins for his confidence.

Ours springer sleeps in a cage – he loves it and goes in radomly when he gets spooked. its like a small cave all covered over for him.

Doesnt get left in it during the day though – only overnight.

ive got a 55 plate sri 150 diesel – love it as a bike car – stays in van mode most of the time. Will get you a pic with the bike in on Thursday. You need the front wheel off.

Wombat – i owe you a beer – cool cheers

no idea….dont care either I just want to tell this dick he is talking bollocks if he is of course….

Its only a bit piss – just water by product.

It was good enough when it went in it should be ok to come out.

NUFC fan here – just been listening to 606 and they are trying to pin Barton's celebration down as a Nazi salute. What a load of bollocks.

All the cool kids have the 2010 model… 😉

pft who needs iscg and tapered headtube 🙁

Looks ace though essel.

Congratulations…we had our firsts 20 wk scan yesterday.

Didnt find out what it was but we think its a girl (3 white lines) Im chuffed but a bit scared for my sanity in 16 years.

Freecycle and ebay are now top of my browsing history.

Your not at Opnetwork by any chance are you?

Anyway – I was there 2 years ago for a week, managed to get myself to Annapolis and do some racing at Annapolis Sailing week – it was ace, the event was sponsored by Mt Gay Rum, with Mt Gay rum promo girls everywhere – they loved the English language 🙂

Good way to end the working week – and all on expenses.

Freecycle….I've just had someone come round and pick up a perfectly fine double bed and mattress for her daughters first flat.

I was going to throw it in the tip but she was well chuffed with it.

Check freegle too.

It seems to take forever to get to the top I know that much.
